Gazing at the pub that he’s failed thus far to get his hands on, Al comes up with a plan to extricate himself from this nightmare. But this scheme is set to result in the Woolpack going up in flames as a fierce fire rips through the pub.
Meena to kill Manpreet?
The big questions over Christmas are whether Manpreet will be the one to stop Meena’s reign of terror? Of if she’ll end up being her next murder victim?
The upcoming drama sees Meena going all out to discredit Dawn, even going to the extent of planting heroin at Woodbine. But her efforts are interrupted by Manpreet, who grabs hold of her sister’s arm, which causes the heroin to fall to the ground.
Manpreet then demands answers, not just about the drugs, but also about Meena’s supposed pregnancy. But believing her sibling to have crossed a line, Meena’s mood darkens and she starts to edge towards Manpreet with a broken bottle in her hand.
But will she really resort to killing her own flesh and blood in order to keep her secret safe?
Charity gets a shock
Over the festive season, Mack tells Charity that he loves her, but is gutted when she doesn’t say the same thing back to him.
Later on, though, Charity finally admits that, yes, she does love Mack. But fans can then expect her to be left reeling when she gets a big not-so-festive shock...
Will proposes to Kim
Kim reveals to Will that she has removed Malone’s corpse from its grave at Home Farm. Her reason? Well, in a rare display of empathy, Kim doesn’t want Will to feel tethered to her any longer and so can decide for himself whether he stays or goes.
As soon becomes clear, Will wants to stay and ends up proposing to Kim. But how will Bernice react when she realises that Will has chosen Kim over her?
Belle and Kyle in danger
Ellie invites Belle and Kyle on an excursion to a local forest. But the day goes awry when Ellis receives a call from a distressed Priya, who’s still struggling with her food.
Ellis then rushes off, leaving Belle alone with young Kyle, who ends up twisting his ankle. Deciding to head home, Belle retraces their steps back to the car but realises that she gave her keys to Ellis.
Belle’s next move is to smash the vehicle’s window and get Kyle inside. But her phone is without signal and running low on power. And as the temperatures plummet, she and Kyle are left shivering and in distress.
When they’re later found unconscious, Cain decides to seek revenge and track down Ellis, who he holds responsible for Belle and Kyle’s plight…
